Bob Dole is mad as hell and Bob Dole can't take it anymore

Bob Dole writes:

"There are miserable creatures like you in every administration who don’t have the guts to speak up or quit if there are disagreements with the boss or colleagues. No, your type soaks up the benefits of power, revels in the limelight for years, then quits, and spurred on by greed, cashes in with a scathing critique.

"In Bob Dole's nearly 36 years of public service Bob Dole has known of a few like you. No doubt you will 'clean up' as the liberal anti-Bush press will promote your belated concerns with wild enthusiasm. When the money starts rolling in you should donate it to a worthy cause, something like, 'Biting The Hand That Fed Me.' Another thought is to weasel your way back into the White House if a Democrat is elected. That would provide a good set up for a second book deal in a few years"

Bob Dole won't read your book because if all these awful things were happening, and perhaps some may have been, you should have spoken up publicly like a man, or quit your cushy, high profile job"

That would have taken integrity and courage but then you would have had credibility and your complaints could have been aired objectively. You’re a hot ticket now but don’t you, deep down, feel like a total ingrate?

Ironically, this was not Bob Dole's letter announcing he wants a divorce to his wife Elizabeth, who owes her Senate seat in large part to the jobs and fame she obtained because she married Bob Dole.

No, it was a letter to Scott McClellan.
